THE PRACTICAL ASSESSMENT TASK FOR TOURISM TEACHER INFORMATION 1. INTRODUCTION
The Practical Assessment Task for Tourism should allow the learner to display understanding of the tourism industry as a dynamic economic sector. It should enhance the knowledge, values and skills learners acquired in Grades 10, 11 and 12 about travel practice. The learners must follow the format and structure of the PAT but the end product, which must be in the form of an Information Booklet, should show individuality with regard to the choices in provinces and attractions.

2. PLANNING FOR THE TASK Time Frames
• • • The Practical Assessment Task in Tourism has two phases. The PAT must be started in January and completed and marked by the end of August. The teacher should dedicate regular lesson time in class, for example a double lesson every second week, for learners to work on the PAT under his/her guidance. The majority of the PAT should be done in class and certain sections can be completed as homework.

•

2.2 The role of the teacher
• The PAT is a compulsory component of the subject and forms part of the final examination. It should receive the same level of consideration as any other part of a final examination. Prior knowledge from Grades 10 and 11 will be required to complete the PAT. Guidance from the teacher will be needed throughout the task. Work must be done under controlled conditions during the PAT lessons. It is the responsibility of the school and the Tourism teacher to provide the resources. Learners should however be encouraged to access additional resources. Examples of templates for the tour plan, itinerary and the cost of the tour are included. Teachers may not develop templates for other sections of the task. The teacher MUST use the assessment tool provided to standardise marking.

Review of Related Literature
In exploration, we find new techniques, new knowledge, even develop new substances, gadgets, equipment, processes or procedures, imagination and skill is employed by the researcher. The commodities, new devices, services, in technology are needs of man for a better fuller life which is the concern of the research. These useful arts are the products of the technological environment and the end-user is society in general. The excerpt was stated by Josefina Estolas in the book Fundamentals of Research (1995).
Science and technology are essential for national development and progress. The State shall give priority to research and development, invention, and their utilization, and to science and technology education according to the 1987 Philippine Constitution (Article XIV, Section 10).
Since computer power was the critical resource, efficiency of processing became the main goal. Emphasis was placed on automating existing process such as purchasing or paying, often within single department as indicated by Jeffrey A. Hofer on Modern System Analysis and Design (1996).
A major purpose of a database system is to provide users with an abstract view of data. That is the system hides certain details of how the data are stored and maintained as stated by Abraham Silberschatz, Database System Concepts (1999).
A database is an organized collection of facts and information. An organizations database can contain facts and information on customers, employees, inventory, competitors, sales information and much more. Most Managers and executive believe a database is one of the most valuable and important parts of a computer-based Information System in accordance with Ralph M. Stair's Fundamentals of Information System (2001).
Initially, all processing was performed on mainframe using a batch approach. Time-sharing was an improvement, but...

The Einstein Tower: An Expressionist Landmark

The Einstein Tower: An Expressionist Landmark

Introduction
Erich Mendelsohn began his creative architectural sketches while standing guard in World War I, along with many other famous architects such as Mies van der Rohe, Gropius, and Le Corbusier. What was it about standing guard between life and death that enticed a certain creative architectural vision? Maybe it simply provided an ability to envision a world unlike the one being occupied or maybe it reminded these young men of the preciousness of life and gave them the yearning to create beautiful places. There seems to be an experienced awareness in Mendelsohn's work, an understanding and balance between function and dynamism, as he calls it, that could be a large part of the curiosity and draw his work has received over the years. The Einstein Tower specifically is known as an expressionist landmark with its concave and convex curvilinear forms, while simultaneously being functional for a very specific purpose, making measurements to validate Albert Einstein's theory of relativity. This building since its completion in 1921 has continuously drawn attention and brings up questions of what contemporary architecture should be. It provides an interesting example of a purely expressionist form, juxtaposed with a very specific function. "Erich Mendelsohn's small, but powerfully modeled tower, built to symbolize the greatness of the Einsteinian concepts, was also a quite functional house. Mendelsohn was after a completely plastic kind of building, molded rather than built, without angles and with smooth, rounded corners…this 'sarcophagus of architectural Expressionism' is one of the most brilliantly original buildings of the twentieth century." (Dennis Sharp. Twentieth Century Architecture: a Visual History. p65).
